Yes you have to remove fan, alternator, unbolt power steering pump (leave high pressure line), remove front axles, unbolt front differential from engine.
No, you do not need to remove engine mounts or lift engine.
Old seal was nice, hard, sticky, and shrunken. Much like valve covers are and the seals in the transmission above the valve body.

Can you please provide more detail of the work. Maybe a separate thread. This is something quite a lot of us will need to do. I will update your thread when I get to do mine if you do so. Thanks.
